Finding Rest in God: A Veteran’s Journey Through Depression

📖 Introduction

Welcome to this 7-day Bible study designed especially for veterans seeking rest and hope amid depression. Life after service can bring many challenges, including battles not visible to the eye — battles within the mind and heart. Depression is a heavy burden that can sap your strength and cloud your spirit. Yet, God invites you to find true rest in Him, a rest the world cannot give. This study offers both encouragement and practical spiritual tools rooted in Scripture to help you walk through dark valleys and come into the light of His peace.

Many veterans understand discipline, endurance, and sacrifice, but God’s rest is a different kind of strength, one freely given to those who lean into Him. As you engage with each day’s passages and devotionals, imagine God speaking directly to your soul — comforting, healing, and renewing your hope. You are not alone in this journey.

Each day we’ll explore themes like God’s presence amid suffering, the peace that surpasses understanding, and spiritual renewal that sustains you through your darkest moments. Don’t rush—take time to reflect, journal, and pray deeply. God’s promises are real and His love unfailing. Anchor yourself in His Word, and let this study be a path to rest, restoration, and renewed courage.
